Goodbye 2011, Hello 2012

2011: We released our 5th album “Shake Those Bones“, played more and more interesting gigs including a fab tour to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and now have more and more fans.

2012: We will be working on the next batch of tunes and widening our circle for more and more interesting gigs and more and more fabulous fans. We have already booked a nice Pacific Northwest tour in March.

And just sos you know, we wouldn’t exist as a band without your coming to our live shows, listening to our music, buying swag and spreading the word about us. Thank you!

Wishing you more and more crazy joy and live music in the new year,

Mags
